Book Description
1989 House Bill No. 2454 pertaining to maintenance of natural gas pipelines and establishment of the Citizens' Utility Ratepayer Board (CURB) does not violate Art. 2, section 16 of the Kansas Constitution which prohibits a bill from containing more than one subject. Though arguably tenuous, we believe the sections addressing gas pipeline maintenance are germane to those creating a board concerned with the cost of utilities in that both are encompassed under the subject and title "relating to public utilities." As such, since the question of how the bill evolved is not relevant to the bill's constitutionality, we believe the connection sufficient to cause the courts to uphold the legislation as constitutional. Cited herein: K.S.A. 55-112, as amended by 1989 H.B. 2454; Kan. Const., Art. 2, section 16; 1989 H.B. 2454; 1989 S.B. 105; L. 1982, ch. 144; L. 1985, ch. 48; L. 1982, ch. 282; L. 1978, ch. 323.

In assigning the work to be performed, a judge or court services division would be exercising judicial and discretionary functions, respectively, and would be exempt from liability under the Tort Claims Act, K.S.A. 1981 Supp. 75-6101 e̲t̲ s̲e̲q̲. However, as noted by Attorney General Opinion Nos. 81-98 and 82-157, the recipient organization (including local governments and non-profit corporations) may be liable for injuries and damages inflicted or suffered by persons acting within the scope of their designated community service duties.

Book Description
A state university's mission is to provide broad-based educational experiences, including forums for enlightenment and opportunities to exchange a broad spectrum of thoughts and ideas. A mandatory fee to fund various groups providing such opportunities and to avoid "free-rides" is justified by this important state interest. The fee may be used to support political and ideological speech if such expenditures are nondiscriminatory and are necessarily or reasonably incurred for the purpose of providing such educational experiences and opportunities. The university may not allow use of mandatory fees to fund lobbying efforts, other off-campus activities, or organizations that are too far removed from the university's educational mission Cited herein: K.S.A. 76-719.

Book Description
While the state may require abortions to be performed in licensed facilities from and after the first trimester, K.S.A. 21-3407 sweeps too broadly and the offending provisions cannot be severed from the rest without legislative amendment. We note that the United States Supreme Court is currently considering a case which may modify Roe v. Wade, and thus render this opinion invalid. Cited herein: K.S.A. 21-3407.
